Harbor Breeze Solar String Light Backyard Set

Easy installation!

Super easy installation which is what I needed. Rated 4 only becuase just as others stated, it does bend once the lights are on. Not sure its durability

Nice and what I wanted

It is pretty much ideal for what I needed. The poles go up to 9 feet and seem pretty sturdy. We will see how it holds up in heavy wind. I am fairly confident it will be okay thought, which is good!

Solid pole

Solid pole, but did need additional supports once the weight of the lights were strung up on it. I just ran a steel cable from the top of the pole over to a nearby tree, and that did the trick.

Sturdy when spaced 10" apart

These are sturdy enough for the price. I used 4 over a 40 foot span and zip tied the wire to each loop- to avoid pulling too hard on any one section. It can be a little hard to get them into firm ground, and because it's just a straight spike I worry they may eventually have enough micro movements to enlarge the hole a little and not stay perfectly straight. I may also add a guide wire to each end pole to help with the extra force pulling inward towards the others, but so far they are fine, even...

Tall

Just what I needed.

Good purchase

Easy to install. Pretty stable. Adequate height

Semi-Sturdy

These would be so much better if they could be put deeper into the ground. I used them to install an 11'10" x 8' Coolaroo Sun Shade to keep the heat off my front porch where I have Tomatoes and Broccoli growing. I am afraid that they will bend fairly easily with a light breeze.

Bend easily making lights droop

These are very easy to install but within a week or so of installing them, all 3 of the poles bend like crazy causing the lights to droop a lot lower than what we were expecting. I'm going to try and strengthen the poles this weekend by pounding in 4 foot 1/2" rebar into the ground and leaving maybe 18" exposed, then covering that with 3/4" EMT conduit before finally placing the poles over that. Hopefully that will add some stability. If that doesn't work, then I might just opt for some bigge...

Ver easy to use

Easy to assemble, works as should

Love these! We bought 11 total. 5 along our back fence and 6 along our patio. The only thing I wish was different is the bottom of the poles, as we had the metal circle plate brake off 1 of them and a couple of the other ones were bending but didnt break off. I think if it was shaped more of an icecream cone from the metal circle plate & down, it would be more secure when trying to put into the ground. I would still buy more in future & recommend to others.
